1. INTRODUCTION This document presents the engineering specifications of Super AllWrite “DS-8ABSH”, a slim

type DVDRW drive. It featuring high speed, power-saving and slim size, is built specifically for

notebook computer. The unit measures 12.7 by 128 by 126.1mm and weights below 140g.

DS-8ABSH is a versatile optical disk drive. For CD write function, it is capable to write data,

which conforms to Orange Book: Part 2 CD-R Volume 1 / Part 2 CD-R Volume 2 Multi Speed/

Part 3 CD-RW Volume 1 (known as Low Speed) / Part 3 CD-RW Volume2: High Speed / Part3

CD-RW Volume 3: Ultra Speed, into CD-R / RW disk in combination with write application

software. For DVD write function, this drive confirms to DVD-RW Version 1.2 / DVD+RW Part

1 Volume 1 Version 1.3 / DVD+RW Part 1 Volume 2 Version 1.0 / DVD-R General Version 2.1

/ DVD+R Version 1.3 / DVD-R9 Version 3.01 / DVD+R9 Version 1.2 / DVD-RAM

(4.7G)Version 2.2. For read function, it is capable to read all of the following media: DVD single

/ dual layer (PTP, OTP), DVD-RW, DVD+RW, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R9, DVD+R9,

DVD-RAM. Besides, it reads all of CD formats and media: CD-DA, CD-ROM, CD-ROM/XA,

Photo-CD, Multi-session, Karaoke-CD, Video CD, CD-I FMV, CD Extra, CD Plus, CD-TEXT,

CD-R and CD-RW.

The drive supports a DVD-ROM data transfer rate of 8X in the outer track, 3.3X in the inner

track, and achieves 6X speed in average for a 12cm (4.7Gbyte, single layer) disc. For CD-ROM

data transfer rate, it supports 24X in the outer track, 10X in the inner track, and achieves 19X

speed in average for a 74 min disc. Besides, SMART-X function smartly adjusts CD-DA / VCD

/ DVD data extraction to a fastest allowable speed according to both data request rate from host

and disk quality. Regarding to CD write speed, it supports CD-R 24X writing, CD-RW 24X

re-writing/ DVD-RW 6X re-writing / DVD+RW 8X re-writing / DVD-R 8X writing / DVD+R

8X writing / DVD-R9 6X writing / DVD+R9 6X writing and DVD-RAM 5X writing. For

writing/ rewriting, SMART-BURN® function can avoid buffer under run as well as get the best

writing quality by smartly adjusting writing strategy.

DS-8ABSH is a multi-function drive with power saving, slim size and ultra light weight that it

meets notebook computer as well as all kinds of compact or external applications.
